Kylie Feller
Licensed Professional Counsellor, MA, CCC
Depression isn’t laziness or weakness—it’s a signal from parts of you that feel exhausted, hopeless, or unseen.
If you're feeling numb, unmotivated, or like you’re moving through life in a fog, I see you. Depression often arises when parts of us carry heavy emotional burdens or feel like they’ve been carrying the weight of the world for too long. Using Internal Family Systems (IFS) and somatic tools like TRE, I help you gently connect with these parts—not to fix or force change, but to understand, unburden, and heal. There is a way back to energy, purpose, and joy. You don’t have to do it alone.

Jayne Batten
Counsellor/Therapist, MSc, CT, MPCC, MBACP
Depression is more significant than just sadness. It lasts longer, and because it can affect people’s lives in many different ways, from their energy levels, ability to focus or work, their ability to eat and sleep, their anxiousness, irritability, emotionality, and their relationships, it can feel more frightening. Talk therapy has been shown to be highly effective for helping people to overcome depression, it helps people find ways to cope with everyday stressors. Talk therapy helps us to gain a new perspective on our problems, find our voice and begin to ask for what we need.

I help clients who are experiencing depression move through the heaviness, numbness, and disconnection that can make everyday life feel difficult. Together, we explore the underlying patterns and experiences contributing to how you feel—not just the symptoms—so we can begin to restore energy, meaning, and a sense of connection to yourself and your life. My approach is steady, compassionate, and paced in a way that respects where you are, while gently supporting movement toward relief and change.

In dealing with depression, first of all, I help my clients to manage their physical symptoms of depression. When you are depressed, you have no energy to do anything, but the only way to deal with depression is to try to stay active. Not just active, but also relaxed. We will start slowly, step by step increasing your activity, improving your motivation and identifying automatic negative thoughts.

Rachel Bates
Registered Psychotherapist, M Phil - Counselling & Psychotherapy; M A Psychology
Depression is a feeling of a low mood that can last for a long time and affect everyday life. It can fill one with despair and hopelessness, guilt and worthlessness, leaving a sense of a lack of motivation and exhaustion. It can affect one's self-esteem, sleep, appetite, sex drive and physical health. In severe cases, depression can make one feel suicidal and this can be life-threatening.

If you are feeling low, or depressed I can help you by integrating behavioural, cognitive and interpersonal approaches with relaxation, visualisation and guided imagery techniques. Contact me for a free consultation to feel more motivated, with a clear plan how to begin to solve your problems. Contrary to common belief, depression is not primarily a biological illness, inherited through the genes. Nor is it the setbacks, crises or tragedies in our lives that cause depression. It is our response to adverse events that determines whether we get depressed or not. Research shows that people most likely to suffer depression are those who react to adversity by taking it personally, seeing all areas of their lives as blighted by it, and the misery as going on forever. Depression is always a second and unnecessary problem, and just makes problematic circumstances worse. This is good to know because it means that, instead of feeling helpless or hopeless, people can learn to take back control over their lives. They may not be able to change certain circumstances but they always have options about how they react to them.
The symptoms of depression include low mood, loss of interest or pleasure in usual activities, loss of appetite and energy, sleep disturbance, feeling agitated or lethargic, worthless or guilty, difficulty in thinking straight and having repeated thoughts about suicide. Antidepressant drugs may help some people because they lift levels of a ‘feel-good’ chemical in the brain; unfortunately, they do nothing to change the underlying circumstances or thinking patterns that led to the depression. Depression is always related to unmet essential emotional needs and that is why the human givens approach, which focuses on helping people in distress find healthy ways to meet their emotional needs, is so successful.
Depressed people may seem deflated and flat but, in actual fact, they have raised levels of a stress hormone called cortisol, which means that they are in a state of constant high emotional arousal. When our emotions are aroused we can’t think rationally, so this is why people deep in the grip of depression can’t concentrate well or even make simple decisions. Learning simple relaxation techniques to calm themselves down will start reducing those cortisol levels.
The main reason that depressed people are so emotionally aroused is that they spend a vast amount of time worrying about the future or beating themselves up about past events. Perhaps they still feel guilty about something that happened recently – or years ago; perhaps they are frightening themselves with dire ‘what if?’ scenarios (likely or unlikely), in which loved ones encounter dangers or they themselves lose their jobs or their homes; perhaps they feel beaten down by chronic pain or anger (“Why did this have to happen to me?” “How could he have been so cruel?”); or maybe they experience a combination. They also have a huge tendency towards negative thinking – “I’ll never be good enough”; “I’ll never cope”; “nothing ever goes right”; “the pain will only get worse”. All this kind of negative imagining and thinking saps an enormous amount of energy – and makes people utterly miserable.
Far from feeling more refreshed after a night’s sleep, most people with depression wake up next day still exhausted and feeling totally unmotivated. It is hard for them to get out of bed and do anything at all. We now know why this happens. Psychologist and co-founder of the human givens approach Joe Griffin carried out research over many years which showed that, when we dream at night, we are discharging unexpressed emotional arousals from the previous day. If earlier we were upset about something our spouse did or didn’t do, but kept it to ourselves, we would later dream that out, perhaps in the form of getting angry with someone else (dream content is never straightforward); that would have the desired effect of lowering our levels of emotional arousal, so that we can start next day afresh, even though we are unlikely to remember we had the dream. (If we did express our feelings with our spouse at the time, we wouldn’t need to dream about it. And, of course, if we wake up and remember what our spouse did or didn’t do, we may get emotionally aroused about it all over again, requiring more dream discharge that night, if we still don’t resolve it.)

Ruth Mark-Roland Psychotherapy
Registered Psychotherapist, Post Grad Diploma in Psychotherapy, Foundation and Diploma in Group Analysis
I offer support for depression, including feelings of low mood, emptiness, exhaustion, hopelessness, and disconnection from yourself or others. Depression can often feel like being “stuck,” emotionally flat, or unable to access motivation or pleasure in life, and it may be accompanied by self-criticism, withdrawal, or a sense of isolation.
My approach is grounded in psychoanalytic and relational psychotherapy, which allows us to explore not only current symptoms, but also the underlying emotional and relational patterns that may be contributing to how you feel. Together, we may look at early attachment experiences, loss, trauma, and internalised beliefs that shape your sense of self and emotional world.
I also integrate somatic awareness to help you gently reconnect with your body, especially when depression feels numb or disconnecting. This can support a gradual return to emotional awareness, grounding, and vitality. Psychoeducation may also be used to help you understand depressive states and how they affect both mind and body, reducing confusion and self-blame. Where appropriate, I may incorporate EFT (Emotional Freedom Techniques / tapping) to support emotional processing and regulation of the nervous system.
Therapy is collaborative and paced according to your needs. We work together to help you understand your experience of depression, make sense of its roots, and slowly build more connection, meaning, and resilience over time.

Depression is often more than low mood, it can reflect patterns shaped by what has been endured over time. My work focuses on understanding these experiences through a trauma-informed lens and a focus on trauma endurance, exploring the deeper patterns that influence how you feel, relate, and cope. This creates space for meaningful, lasting change.
